Thanks to AJG for collating the numbers.

A bitterly cold afternoon found the Cattle Egrets were still in the sheep field in Dengemarsh Road and the elusive Slavonian Grebe was still on Dengemarsh.
Late afternoon 220 more Brent Geese passed the fishing boats, 2 Wheatears, 2 Black Redstarts and 2 Stonechats including the stunning male rubicola were on the beach.
